Question

All plants translocate sugar sucrose.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

• All plants translocate sugar sucrose.
• The translocation of sugars takes place by the pressure-flow or mass flow hypothesis.
• As glucose is prepared at the source, it is converted to sucrose. The sugar is then moved in the form of sucrose into the companion cells and then into the living phloem sieve tube cells by active transport.
